Do I need traditional security software on my laptop, phone or tablet if I have F-Secure SENSE Router? - F-Secure Community
<main> <article class="userContent"> <p> </p>Do I need traditional security software on my laptop, phone or tablet if I have F-Secure SENSE Router? <p><strong>Note:</strong> <strong>This article is valid for you only if you are using the standalone version of F-Secure SENSE Router</strong> (not part of the F-Secure TOTAL package). </p> <p>With F-Secure SENSE Router no traditional security software is needed. </p> <p>As F-Secure SENSE Router is using a three-layer protection system consisting of the F-Secure SENSE Router device, the F-Secure SENSE Router app, and F-Secure Security Cloud, the F-Secure SENSE Router app needs to be installed on your computers and mobile devices to gain the fullest protection with SENSE. In addition, the F-Secure SENSE Router app is used for the initial set-up of the SENSE Router device. </p> <p>On the go when you are outside of your home network, the SENSE Router app provides protection for your mobile devices as well. This is a lightweight software application, which consumes less device resources compared to most traditional security software. </p> <p><strong>Note:</strong> The availability of protection features for F-Secure SENSE Router varies by platform, and the features available also depend on whether you are at home in your home network or on the go.
